I don't have that problem.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

It bothers me cuz you can't tell what day you have a appointment or a meeting just by looking at the monthly view. So a solution will be much appreciated. And yes I have read all the pages in this thread and I don't recall seeing a solution but could be I missed that post

You see the black line in the 14th that indicates an event.

If I can get my non rooted replenish to take a screenshot I would. By me a event shows as a shadded corner on the lower right of the days box. And when I activate the hebrew calander to show in my calander it puts a event on every day

The stock alarm clock on my Replenish will ring and ring every ten min, so therefore I can't use it on shabbos. I'm looking for a free alternative. Which one do you recommend? The ability to move to SD card is a big plus for me. Thanks
